I have the FOBO TPMS and like that I can know the tire pressures before getting on the bike. And with a good tail wind when the skip is in I get them without even being in the garage. Using an app on my phone is not as quick as turning on a key but close enough for me.
If I had a system that powered on with a key a cool but not really necessary farkle would be a momentary push-button to read the pressures without a key. Not necessary but it's a farkle!
What I wouldn't want to do is get rolling only to find out I need air and turn around or add air on the road. I'd rather do it while both the tires and bike are cold. Get 'er done in the morning and be done with it. I rode for years without a TPMS and thinking about tire (huh that looks low better check) pressure or temperature so knowing pressure before a ride is a big step up for me.
